[Verse 1]
Love doesn't come with a contract
You give me this I gave you that
It's scary business
Your heart and soul is on the line
Baby why else would I be standing round here so tongue-tied
[Chorus]
If I knew what I was doing I'd be doing it right now
I would be the best damn poet
Silver words out of my mouth
Well my words might not be magic
But they cut straight to the truth
So if you need a lover and a friend
Baby I'm in, I'm in
[Verse 2]
Baby come on in the water's fine
I'll be right here you take your time
Just let me hold you and we'll both take that leap of faith
It's like I told you there's no guarantees when you feel this way
[Chorus]
If I knew what I was doing I'd be doing it right now
I would be the best damn poet
Silver words out of my mouth
Well my words might not be magic
But they cut straight to the truth
So if you need a lover and a friend
Baby I'm in I'm in baby I'm in I'm in
[Bridge:]
Baby come here next to me I'll show you how good it can be
I'll breathe each breath you breathe I can pour out everything I am
[Chorus]
If I knew what I was doing I'd be doing it right now
I would be the best damn poet's silver words out of my mouth
Well my words might not be magic
But they cut straight to the truth
Now if you need a lover and a friend
Now if you need a lover and a friend
Baby I'm in I'm in baby I'm in I'm in
[Outro]
Baby come here next to me I'll show you how good it can be
I'll breathe each breath you breathe I can pour out everything I am
Baby come here next to me I'll show you how good it can be
Baby come here next to me I'll show you how good it can be
Baby come here baby come here baby come here
Love doesn't come with a contract
You give me this I gave you that
It's scary business
Your heart and soul is on the line
Baby why else would I be standing round here so tongue-tied
[Chorus]
If I knew what I was doing I'd be doing it right now
I would be the best damn poet
Silver words out of my mouth
Well my words might not be magic
But they cut straight to the truth
So if you need a lover and a friend
Baby I'm in, I'm in
[Verse 2]
Baby come on in the water's fine
I'll be right here you take your time
Just let me hold you and we'll both take that leap of faith
It's like I told you there's no guarantees when you feel this way
[Chorus]
If I knew what I was doing I'd be doing it right now
I would be the best damn poet
Silver words out of my mouth
Well my words might not be magic
But they cut straight to the truth
So if you need a lover and a friend
Baby I'm in I'm in baby I'm in I'm in
[Bridge:]
Baby come here next to me I'll show you how good it can be
I'll breathe each breath you breathe I can pour out everything I am
[Chorus]

Now if you need a lover and a friend
Baby I'm in I'm in baby I'm in I'm in
[Outro]
Baby come here next to me I'll show you how good it can be
I'll breathe each breath you breathe I can pour out everything I am
Baby come here next to me I'll show you how good it can be
Baby come here next to me I'll show you how good it can be
Baby come here baby come here baby come here
